Leather + Lace: Revenge of the Fifth – May 5th, 2018

Hosted by Apollo Marquez at Plan B in Madison Wisconsin, L+L features seamless, tag-team sets of crushing dance beats, hand-chosen and mixed live by DJ Mike Carlson and DJ WhiteRabbit – including the best mix of new and classic electronic, industrial, ebm, techno, and more.

SPECIAL NOTE: While we’re not doing an “official” theme for this L+L, it does happen to fall on May the Fifth; and though “May the Fourth” has become a day to celebrate Star Wars and its heroes, the following day is known as “Revenge of the Fifth”—a day to celebrate the Sith Lords and other dark villains from the Star Wars universe.

Therefore, for those so inclined, we encourage you to indulge in your favorite cosplay for this L+L! Be it Star Wars, Marvel, Disney, Overwatch, or anything else, now’s your chance to rock your favorite character’s signature look, whatever the genre, whether hero or villain! (Though of course we prefer the villains – but you already knew that.) 😈☠️😱💕

SIDE NOTE: For those who AREN’T interested in this admittedly niche suggestion, no sweat! Simply dress as you would for any other L+L: sexy, stylish, creative, or daring! “Revenge of the Fifth” is NOT an official theme, and we DON’T really expect mass participation – but we couldn’t let this date go by without at least acknowledging it!
